We can help you evaluate feasibility, organizational impact, the correct project approach, identify the best solutions, and, if desired, help you successfully implement those solutions.

IMAGING

Converting your organization’s critical business information from paper documents to electronic images can be the distinguishing factor that puts your company ahead of the competition. The benefits of imaging are immense:

Reduces storage, processing, and transportation costs.

Enhances communication, process, and workflow efficiencies.

Promotes security, compliance, and documentation.

The EZEN Process

At the origination point, documents are scanned or information is captured electronically.

Once data is captured, streamlined interfaces perform additional indexing and quality assurance for readability, business rules, and verifications.

Verified documents can be rendered in a wide variety of formats, routed in a workflow, and securely managed by additional content services.

MIGRATION

Migrating content from one environment to another is a highly sensitive effort requiring the strictest attention to detail, integrity, and security. EZEN embodies these attributes in our service as well as our migration products. Before utilizing any product to aid migration, EZEN helps companies take a thorough inventory of their migration needs. The process begins with an extensive analysis of the source repository, including analysis of the file/folder structure and discovery of the number of documents and duplicates, document formats, and estimated migration time and cost. After defining migration sets based on client structure, user rights and other classifications, users can enrich content by adding metadata from the source system, such as attributes and access control lists (ACLs). The analysis results in a detailed, complex set of tasks needed to complete the migration, which typically requires specialised tools and expertise. These tools are used for the final step in the process – the actual transfer of content with the metadata into the repository.

EZEN has developed specific frameworks to support the migration of legacy content to new repositories, such as EMC Documentum. Our framework features robust capabilities for migrating large amounts of EMC Documentum content in a scalable fashion, supporting the transfer of content through an easy-to-use interface. Our frameworks are developed to migrate content relationships and lifecycle information, perform multi-threaded loads, control logging levels, and map attribute values between repositories. Scheduled incremental migration provides many uses, including content archiving, incremental backups, migration from test to staging environments, and the import of reports or other objects on a predefined schedule.

BUSINESS PROCESS MANAGEMENT

It is ultimately the day-to-day business processes that can make or break organizational success. Synchronising those processes across an entire enterprise improves efficiencies, compliance, and risk mitigation. This requires a comprehensive framework that supports internal and external objectives—both seamlessly and efficiently.

BUSINESS PROCESS MANAGEMENT

A company’s digital assets (rich media such as product images, streaming video, logos, and presentations) are often underutilised because they are not easily located and/or accessed. EZEN crafts an environment that fully leverages the value of your digital assets by enabling users to easily store, search, access, modify, and repurpose these items.

Our experience with the infrastructures of FORTUNE 1000 organisations makes EZEN an industry leader in business process management (BPM) solutions. We help companies define and install frameworks uniquely suited to their needs, enabling:

Collaboration - link the people, applications, and content of unstructured processes across the enterprise.

Queue Management - Monitor inventory, statuses, volumes, and other pertinent data through a centralised engine.

External Integration – Construct a standards-based framework for external processes that integrates data exchange within your own platform.

Scalable Growth - Adjust along with the changing drivers of your business. Simplified, easy-to-use tools running off a robust engine and repository make changes easier to implement.

RECORDS MANAGEMENT

Compliance demands make it increasingly arduous for organizations to manage records. Legacy repositories have quickly become overburdened, creating inefficiencies and the potential for risk. And, in addition to efficient storage of records, companies must take proactive measures to organize the data for consistent and expedient retrieval in the event of an audit. EZEN understands that underlying this broad objective, industries face specific records management challenges within their respective enterprises:

FinancialSEC Rules 17a-3 and 17a-4 , NASD 3110 , NTM 98-
Services 11 (Amendments to Rules 3010 and 3110)
Corporate Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002

EZEN enables effective records management by crafting a coordinated enterprise-wide approach for your company. The records management system is woven throughout the IT infrastructure, corporate processes, and information archives, allowing for consistent capture and maintenance of all types of content. This not only mitigates risk but also allows you to more efficiently:

Store and dispose of records- Remove unneeded items at the earliest appropriate dates.

Search and access - An organized methodology of the most current, required inventory promotes accessibility.

Access information – Find critical business information that could otherwise be lost in personal mailboxes, hard drives, and network folders.

Scale - As regulations change or increase, the system grows accordingly with no incremental software.
